Hi Yura,

Tested this with the latest try build 60.0a1 (2018-02-13) and here are the results:
- On Windows and Linux, the shortcut is "Ctrl"+"Shift"+"A", which opens the Add-ons Manager page (about:addons). Thereby, I recommend changing this with a shortcut that doesn't interfere with other functionalities.
- On Mac OS, the shortcut is still "Cmd"+"Opt"+"z" and it still doesn't focus the Accessibility tab.

Sounds good, I updated and put back to the "Z" as command key. Not pushed to try yet but will be fixed.

Unfortunately the "Ctrl+Shift+Z" shrotcut is not working as expected on Windows and Linux. The shortcut works only if you previously opened the Web Console.
After further investigation I have found that the "Ctrl+Shift+Z" shortcut is already used by Mozilla for "redo" option: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Keyboard_shortcuts

However, on Mac OS the "Cmd+Opt+Z" shortcut for Accessibility works as expected.

Component: Developer Tools → Developer Tools: Accessibility Tools
I updated it to '0'
I have retested this issue using the latest Nightly try build (2018-03-01), but the shortcut is not working on Windows and Linux. If you press the "Ctrl+Shift+0" keyboard shortcut noting happens.

However, it seems that on Mac Os the "Cmd+Opt+0" shortcut is working as expected.

Yes, no problem in uplifting this early.

Ryan, can we hold off on uplifting it, there might be a conflict with the command key on windows (Shift + F10 triggers context menues). I'm gonna push a follow up to nightly that changes F10 to probably F12.

Sure
